A dense nanostructured (Mo,Ti)Si-2 compound was simultaneously synthesized and sintered by the high frequency induction heating method within 2 minutes from mechanically activated powder of Mo, W and Si. A highly-dense (Mo, Ti)Si-2 compound was produced under simultaneous application of a 80 MPa pressure and the induced current. The mechanical properties and microstructure were investigated.
